Fish Tales - Start and castor button lights, not working... ?

So, my Fish Tales has a lit castor button, except it's not currently lighting up.

I know it works becuase it flashed when i bought it, but doesn't any more.

Then only thing i've done is fit an LED OCD, but i'm not sure how that might affect things.

I have not tried taking the castor off and replacing the bulb inside it yet.... but i will soon. However, adding to this mystery, the start button light isn't working either - i've tried bulbs and LEDs, both directions. Nothing works in there.

Is there a missing diode or something odd, a quirk maybe, that i'm missing in the wiring of this particular age of machine?

Any tips gratefully appreciated.

Highly likely cabling as all other lamps are working. Have a look at J137/138 and J133-135 on the PDB if all plugs are connected, also on the coin door board in the body.
 
Thanks all.

I might also email Herg at LED OCD to see if he’s had this one before with FishTales.

Bit too warm for machine maintenance, will pick this up in the week.
